Shotwell 1.3.1

Release notes for Shotwell 1.3.1.

Released March 23, 2026

What's new

  • Added quick-action buttons on the empty canvas so you can jump straight to importing a photo, pasting, or grabbing your latest screenshot.
  • Smarter screenshot detection: the editor now more reliably finds and offers your most recent screenshot when you open the image picker.
  • Removed WebP from the export format options — exports now default to PNG or JPEG for broader compatibility.
  • Removed built-in default presets; the style preset gallery now starts clean so your own presets take center stage.
  • New gallery screens for browsing edit history, stroke styles, and style presets with faster thumbnail loading.
